《Karma (super smash bros)》01| Invitation

"Thank god. I'm starving." Peach complained, taking a seat at their usual table.
Zelda, her best friend, sat down beside her. "Agreed." The honey blonde commented as she put a forkful of Chicken Alfredo into her mouth, one of her favorite school lunches.
Their table was already full of people. Jocks, the majority of Smash High School's cheer squad, and a few volleyball girls that played alongside Zelda.
"Hey babe." The brawny, blue haired, football and basketball legend greeted the also fairly successful blonde.
"Hey." She greeted her boyfriend, giving him a light kiss on the lips as he took a seat on her other side.
Peach just rolled her eyes. The two had been dating for just over 10 months, and being Zelda's best friend, she saw a lot of the two's shared affection. We're talking a lot of affection.
"Hey Zel!" Lynn, a fellow member of Smash High's Volleyball Team, greeted as she took a seat across from her.
Zelda smiled warmly at her friend, "Hey Lynn. How's your knee feeling?"
"Much better than it did yesterday, but I still have to wear this ugly thing for a few days. Hopefully I can still play in Tuesday's game." The girl with long greenish-blue hair pouted, lifting up her leg to show a black brace on her knee, worn over her pants.
"Don't worry," Zelda told her reassuringly, "I'm sure it'll be better by Tuesday as long as you rest up this weekend."
"Who has time to rest on a freaking Friday?!" Roy, Ike's best friend and fellow football team player, exclaimed, joining the conversation and sitting down next to Lynn.
She rolled her eyes at the red head. "Normal people." She replied simply.
"Well, luckily we are all far from normal, because I'm throwing a party tonight. And you better be there." Roy said excitedly.
"Didn't you just throw one a week ago?" Zelda asked.
"Roy parties practically everyday." Ike told his girlfriend, with a playful smirk.
"Very true, my good man." Roy agreed. "Anyway, that party turned out to be a bust, and this one is going to be much better."
"How so?" Zelda persisted, unconvinced.
"Because," He said with a smirk, "everyone is invited."
Before Zelda or Lynn could further question the rambunctious boy, he was standing on the table, narrowly avoiding stepping in Zelda's lunch.
"PARTY AT MY HOUSE TONIGHT STARTING AT 8 TO WHENEVER. BRING WHOMEVER YOU PLEASE, AND YOUR BEST PARTYING SPIRITS! FURTHER DETAILS WILL BE POSTED ON MY SMASHBOOK!" Roy yelled at the top of his lungs. Zelda covered her face in embarrassment as the cafeteria burst into cheers.
Ike whooped, helping his best friend down from the table. Some teachers began to walk briskly to their table, probably to scold Roy for not only standing on the table, but also creating quite a ruckus.
"See you after school?" Ike asked Zelda, quickly standing to run after his friend who was waiting by the doors calling for him.
"Sure." Zelda agreed with a small smile. They shared a long kiss.
"HURRY IKE!" Roy yelled from across the room.
Ike laughed boyishly as he sprinted from the table and out of sight into the hall with Roy. A few teachers were still in furious pursuit.

Lynn shook her head, rolling her eyes at the immature boys.
"I think you're dating a 12 year old." Peach whispered in her best friend's ear.
Zelda laughed, nodding in agreement. "Sometimes it feels like he's more like seven."
Peach laughed with her. "Still though, I have a feeling this party will definitely be one to remember. We have to go." The bright blonde told the darker blonde.
Zelda sighed. Of course she loved spending time with all of her friends and her boyfriend (even if he was a little immature at times), but Roy's parties weren't always that fun. They mostly consisted of blaring music, plenty of alcohol despite them all being under-aged, and lots of drunk sex. It got pretty graphic at times.
Peach gave her the 'stop being a Debbie Downer' look. "C'mon. We're cheerleaders! It's one of our duties to attend all the wild parties on Friday nights."
Zelda just rolled her eyes, but cracked a small smile. "Alright, alright." She agreed finally.
"Yay!" Peach trilled, clapping her hands enthusiastically.
The conversation continued about what was to be expected of the night ahead. Their whole table was going. They even made some bets about who would be most drunk tonight, if the cops would crash it, and who would be having sex.
When the bell rang, Zelda dumped her tray and walked with Palutena, one of her other friends on the volleyball team, and headed to their fourth period. The last class of the day.
Smash High was an A and B day school. Meaning four classes on A-Day, then four different classes on B-Day. The day's alternated every other day. Each class was 90 minutes, with an hour lunch to boot in between third and fourth period.
Once the hellish 90 minutes was up for her AP English class, Zelda gathered her things from her locker and headed outside to meet Ike, her ride home.
"Guess who." A deep voice rasped in her ear as two large hands covered her eyes.
"Hmm, I wonder who it could be." Zelda said, playing along. Though she had a strong feeling it was a certain blue haired boy.
The hands shifted on her face, signaling the person had moved from behind her to in front of her.
A pair of very familiar and intoxicating lips met hers. She immediately melted into the kiss. "Does that answer your question?" The deep voice asked.
She shook her head slightly. "Maybe another kiss, just to be sure." She joked.
He answered her wish, pressing his lips to hers again. This time, more briefly. The hands moved, returning her vision.
"Oh it's you! I still wasn't sure." She said playfully, smiling at her boyfriend.
Ike gasped, clutching a hand to his heart in mock offense. "I can't believe it. That's it, I guess I have to kill myself now." He said pretending to wipe a tear from his blue eye.
"Nooooo!" Zelda whined immediately, wrapping her thin arms around her boyfriend's waist. He chuckled lightly, receiving a small giggle from her as well as he pulled her tightly to him.
"Don't worry, I'd never do something like that." He reassured her.
"Good." She replied, smiling. He grabbed her noticeably smaller hand in his rather large one and walked with her into the mess of a parking lot.

They walked over to his familiar navy jeep. He pulled some car keys from his pocket. The car beeped, signaling it was unlocked for access.
He pulled the door open for her. "My lady."
"What a gentleman!" Zelda exclaimed in mock surprise. She climbed into the car, Ike shutting the door behind her.
He jogged around the front of his car and returned on the driver side.
He dropped Zelda off at home, leaving her to get ready for the party. He told her he'd be back to pick her up around 8, then disappeared from sight after one last goodbye kiss.
She headed up the long driveway that led to the ginormous house. She punched in the code on the side of one of the two garage doors. It opened revealing a spacious room.
Zelda's own silver Lexus sat near the other garage door, next to the old mustang her father worked on when he had free time. He never did have free time though. And two empty spots were left where her parents expensive sports cars should be.
Her mom was in the process of pursuing her fashion dream, and was always off someplace or another working on a project or "getting inspiration." Her father on the other hand was a well known neurosurgeon. He was somewhere in the top 20 best surgeons of his specialty in the world.
She entered the large house, it was well furnished with only the best of the best, but it was nothing without a family to enjoy it with. Zelda always wished to have a sibling of some sort. Even an annoying little brother would be better than what she had.
She quickly completed her math homework and what she had left to do on an english essay while she snacked on some fruit from the fridge.
Not long after, just after 4, the doorbell rang, echoing through the spacious house. Zelda opened the door to reveal none other than her very best blonde friend, Peach.
"Hey girl." Peach greeted enthusiastically.
"Hey." Zelda replied, opening the door wider to let the visitor inside.
"C'mon! We better start getting ready for the party." Peach said, gesturing to the large duffel bag hanging off her shoulder.
"It's only four." Zelda said questioningly, checking her phone again for confirmation. It was in fact only 4:07, giving them just under four hours to get ready. Zelda really only required an hour and a half at most.
"You mean it's already four." Peach corrected. "We've got no time to lose!" With that she grabbed Zelda's hand and dragged her down the hall, up the stairs, and into the second door on the right; Zelda's bedroom.
Her bedroom was large, as it should be in a house such as hers. Also considering that she was an only child, the room was only slightly smaller than the master bedroom.
The walls were painted a light grey color, with dark hardwood floors that ran throughout the whole house. A cream colored king sized bed sat centered under a large window on the wall across from the door.
It was adorned in violet sheets, and a large white comforter along with more than enough pillows of white, violet, and even a few silver decorative ones. On either side of her bed was matching cream nightstands, each with a lamp, as well as a desk, dresser, bookshelf, love seat, full body mirror, and large walk in closet.
Peach dumped her duffel carelessly on the love seat and began to unload its contents. She pulled out an extensive amount of makeup and hair products, some jewelry, and a few different dresses with matching heels.
"Go get showered." Peach demanded. "We're completely starting fresh on your hair and makeup." It was just then that Zelda noticed her friend no longer had the makeup on that she wore to school, and her hair was slightly damp as if she just showered.
Zelda nodded obediently and headed into the lavish bathroom attached to her bedroom. She brought in a fresh pair of undergarments and some cheer shorts plus a t-shirt.
She kept her shower short, quickly washing off the day's makeup and washing out the loose curls from her hair. Quickly she dried off, dressed, and headed back into her room where Peach was examining the outfits she'd brought.
Zelda approached behind the indecisive blonde as she brushed through her clean hair.
"I like that one." She told her, gesturing to a silky pink dress. "It really suits you."
"You think so?" Peach asked turning to her. Zelda nodded to confirm.
"Now we just need to find what you're going to wear." She said excitedly. The determined girl walked quickly to Zelda's closet, throwing the door open and walking in.
Zelda followed closely behind, only to find her friend at the rack where all her dresses were hanging.
Peach picked out a flashy pink dress which Zelda immediately shook her head to. They settled upon a black dress, with some neutral designs from the waist down. It was paired with a nude knitted cardigan and light peach colored heels to match the color scheme of the patterned portion. The outfit was completed with a long gold necklace, some gold and black bracelets, and her black clutch.
Peach's outfit was completed with sparkly silver heels, a glittery silver clutch, a silver necklace, and some silver bracelets.
They then got to immediate work on their hair and makeup. Both of their hair was curled. Zelda went for a more natural look with her makeup, while Peach was slightly more spontaneous with it.
Soon enough, they were finished and ready to go.
"Ike's here." Zelda said, just after reading his text saying so. She grabbed her clutch, shoving her phone in it. Peach checked herself one last time in the mirror, grabbed her own clutch, and followed her friend outside.
They climbed into Ike's jeep and were off.
Roy's house was only a mile or two from Zelda's, so it didn't take long to get there.
Cars were already parked up and down the street, teenagers littered the yard, and music blared from inside.
This should be interesting, Zelda had thought to herself as she stared at the party before her.

Important notes: 1, I'm not a native speaker, so be prepared for occassional typos, iffy grammar and maybe awkward sentences. The spell check was running, when I wrote the chapters, but it works in strange ways... If you point out mistakes, I will try to correct them 2, Scheduling will be two chapters a week, posted Saturdays before noon (CET). Depending on how much new chapters I can write consistently there will be probably more but as long as I have leftover chapters, the two per week will be posted no matter what. Chapters will be around 1500-2500 words as MS Word counts it. 3, I did not and will not post this novel on another site, if you find it somewhere else, please inform me 4, The Main Character's progression is slow, there will be no Levels, Skills, Abilities, Feats, Perks and Cheat Powers raining down on him 5, I've put Comedy as a genre because of my writing style not because the novel is a comedy per se. On the other hand, Traumatising Content is there because there is a lot of speciesism - those Elves are not nice people. 6, I put a lot of pop-cultural references into the chapters, try to find them! Enjoy!
